Religious Terror and the Erotics of Exceptional Violence

Roger Friedland of University of California, Santa Barbara has authored a series of dense, imaginative papers that set a new direction for social and cultural theory.

We are happy to present Professor Friedland’s paper, “Religious Terror and the Erotics of Exceptional Violence” for the first time as an online publication on the IDEOLOGIES OF WAR, GENOCIDE AND TERROR website.

In this exciting paper, Professor Friedland writes about religious nationalism, erotic violence and masculinity, warfare as love, and the role of the body in social theory.
